A delicate, geometric sans with consistently thin strokes and smooth, circular curvature. The design relies on simple construction—near-perfect rounds (O, o, 0), clean verticals, and lightly tapered joins—giving the alphabet a crisp, schematic feel. Counters are generous and open, terminals are mostly straight-cut, and spacing reads even and uncluttered in text. Uppercase forms stay restrained and architectural, while the lowercase keeps a single-storey a and g and a compact, tidy rhythm.
Best suited for display settings where its fine stroke weight and geometric clarity can shine—brand marks, editorial headlines, packaging, and large-format layouts. It can work for short text and captions in clean, spacious designs, but benefits from comfortable sizes and sufficient contrast due to its very light construction.
The overall tone is quiet and contemporary, with a minimalist, design-forward character. Its thin stroke and open forms create an elegant, airy impression that feels premium and understated rather than loud or playful.
The letterforms suggest an intention to provide a modern, geometric sans that feels elegant and minimal, emphasizing clarity, openness, and a consistent monoline rhythm for contemporary visual identities and clean editorial design.
Round characters (O/Q/0/8) are especially prominent and smooth, reinforcing a geometric backbone. Diagonals in letters like A, V, W, X and Y appear sharp yet light, and the figures follow the same pared-back logic with simple curves and straight stems.
